Cursed Immortalitychapter 414: a fine dine

Sofie speechlessly watches Jacob gobbling down one dish after another and wonders if he is a giant in disguise. No, even giants can't eat that much, especially when the table is filled with high-quality meat.

She could tell that after she took a bit and she felt a massive energy in the meat, which even shocked her.

'Don't tell me he hunts some high-tier epic beasts? Just how strong is he?' She thought as she elegantly cut a tender steak and chewed on it.

Everyone aside, she really enjoyed this foreign taste and flavor Jacob brought out. But speechless nonetheless about Jacob's appetite.

But it was just the start of her shock; as time passed, Jacob didn't appear to be stopping at all; instead, he was becoming faster as if a hungry ghost possessed him.

'How can he eat so much without bursting his stomach?' She wondered with a fearful gaze.

The more she knows about this 'barbarian,' the more she feels she knows absolutely nothing about him.

Half an hour later, the entire table filled with delicacies was swoop cleaned, and not even a bone was spared, and 98% of it was devoured by Jacob alone!

"Sigh… now that was delicious." Jacob sighed in bliss as he finally felt his bland taste buds were finally rejuvenated.

Then he looked at gobsmacked Sofie, who was looking at him as if he was a monster but couldn't care less about what she thought and asked, "Do you have good liquor?"

"W-what… you can still consume more?" She asked in bewilderment.

"What this nonsense? Do you have it or not? Since I treat you to a meal, you should retune the courtesy by treating your host with good alcohol. I'm pretty sure an Elder Grandmaster like you has a pretty high-quality one. Don't make me order you." Jacob coldly stated.

'Just say you're robbing me!' Sofie ground her teeth and took out a beautiful ruby bottle, and threw it towards him with pursed lips, "It's a Basic Epic Rank Hell Fire Whiskey, fermented with pure fire element herbs of basic epic rank. Just one bottle costs 10,000 ZC!"

With a hint of astonishment as he looked at the ruby bottle and, within the crimson blood-like liquid and popped its diamond cork. A strong scent of alcohol instantly filled with air. But it wasn't just that, but that scent left a burning sensation as it was on fire.

Jacob's eyes lit up, "I say you guys really know how to brew alcohol here. Let's include a few hundred cartons of this thing as well in the materials I made you found."

Sofie was startled before spiteful spat, "Do you think that is seawater? Even I can only buy ten cartons each year with my status, and you want a few hundred, dream on!"

Jacob didn't seem angry at all after hearing Sofie's blunt rejection and smiled slyly as he said, "Alright, leave everything you have here then, and buy as many as you have when you leave."

He took out a glass and poured himself the blood-like whiskey, completely ignoring fuming Sofie, who he had doped.

Then he took a small spit of Hell Fire Whiskey, and his eyes went wide when he felt the strong charred flavor, followed by a fiery sensation as if his mouth was set ablaze and he was holding lava in his mouth.

If he hadn't had an epic body, he would've died by this drink of hell!

Nevertheless, he swallowed and left intoxicating about that damn flavor and praised sincerely, "This is probably the best whiskey I ever drink. You really made my day. Tell me, why were you here?"

'I remember when I first drank that thing, I threw it out instantly and didn't dare to drink it out of sheer fear. Yet, this detestable man…' Sofie felt even more rage bubbling up as she watched Jacob enjoy the Hell Fire Whiskey with great relish.

Nevertheless, she knew she was just a slave, not his friend, and Jacob made this boundary absolutely clear with the way he treated her. Although he gives her leeway. But in truth, he was controlling her every move and calculating it before she could even make it.

"I was here to report some matter to you and also give you the second batch of materials you required. Here." She coldly said as she threw the space ring that Curtis gave her to Jacob.

He caught it with his unoccupied hand and then checked the materials inside. It was s basic epic rank space ring with 100 cubic meters of storage space, and it was 90% filled with all kinds of epic materials, especially the epic titan iron.

'This would last me until I reach the full extent of the Rune Artificer, and then I can start creating titian tears as it is far more useful in many ways.' Jacob thought as he stowed the ring away.

"Good work, I guess." He nodded before returning to enjoying the drink.

Sofie wasn't done, though, as she said, "I'm also running out ZC to buy those materials. If you don't believe me see my account. I've already spent almost all of my earnings on those materials. I'm afraid there is nothing left for you to rob from me."

"Is that so?" Jacob looked at her with scrutiny and didn't find her scornful words to be a lie, "How much do you need to supply me the same quantity for, let's just say, thrice a month for about 12 months maximum and nine months minimum."

Sofie narrowed her eyes as she made some quick calculations and answered, "30 Million ZC should be sufficient. Do you have that much money?"

Jacob dismissively nodded, "I'll give you 40. Use the extra 10 to buy nothing but titan iron from any and everywhere. But when I transfer you the money, you can't talk about my Star ID even with me or write about it. If you do, you will die before you even perform that action."

Jacob, this time used the parasite gem to thoroughly impart this exact command which made Sofie astonished since Jacob only used the parasite gem when it was absolutely a grave matter.

She wondered with uncertainty, 'What's so special about his Star ID?'
